Looks like whatsapp-purple is no longer being developed.

However it seems that you can use telepathy-haze with purple plugins to some
extent. I just found a way to enable facebook chat integration through
purple-facebook.

See:
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=208214

"Installed: 
purple-facebook-git (AUR)
telepathy-haze

I've created two files:
/usr/share/accounts/services/kde/ktp-haze-facebook-im.service

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<service id="ktp-haze-facebook-im">
  <type>IM</type>

  <name>Chat</name>
  <icon>im-facebook</icon>
  <provider>ktp-haze-facebook</provider>
  <translations>kaccounts-providers</translations>

  <template>
      <group name="telepathy">
          <setting name="manager">haze</setting>
          <setting name="protocol">facebook</setting>
      </group>
      <group name="auth">
          <setting name="method">password</setting>
          <setting name="mechanism">password</setting>
      </group>
  </template>
</service>

and
/usr/share/accounts/providers/kde/ktp-haze-facebook.provider

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<provider id="ktp-haze-facebook">
    <name>Facebook</name>
    <icon>im-facebook</icon>

    <description>Chat account in Facebook</description>
    <translations>kaccounts-providers</translations>
    <plugin>ktpaccountskcm_plugin_kaccounts</plugin>
</provider>

That is it. After that you can add facebook to in Online Accounts.
The only problem is that group chats do not work."

Could this be automated somehow so you don't have to search for this solution
and do it manually?
Getting the other plugins to work would also be really nice.
